Dan Cayer: Kindness As Insight – Podcast 226

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Working with the body through meditation doesn’t have to mean only observing. Sometimes, especially if there is pain or discomfort, just “noticing” can end up being a continuation of our habitual practice of judging and withholding compassion. In this episode, we will explore how we can practice embodiment and extend kindness to ourselves, especially during meditation, through an embodied lovingkindness practice.

Dan Cayer is a Westchester-based teacher and writer who is committed to helping others change habitual patterns, find freedom from pain, and create a sane relationship with their body. He is a longtime meditator and trained instructor. After a serious injury left Dan unable to work or take care of himself, he began training in the Alexander Technique. His return to health, as well as his deep experience with the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of pain and illness, inspired him to help others. Dan now teaches an integration of mindfulness and the Alexander Technique as a method of recovering balance and well-being.
